Storm in Bordeaux: help the Sunrise settlement rebuild
Neighbors in the Sunrise settlement are rebuilding after the storm; every contribution goes to materials and supplies.
🇫🇷 Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France962 views
The storm hit the Sunrise settlement on 28 June. My home was one of 25 damaged, and 2 families are still in temporary shelter at the sports club.
The first few days we shared what little we had. Now the cleanup has started, but we've no money for materials and winter or the rainy season is coming.
Schools in the area have been closed, and the clinic lost its cold storage for vaccines. We're a small community of working families who have never asked for help before.
We have formed a volunteer committee, and I'm the treasurer, so I'll post receipts for everything we buy.
We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates.
Where the $1,600 goes:
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $430
• Tools and labor for repairs: $530
• Food parcels for displaced families: $640
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Best of luck, Pierre. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours.
Best of luck, Pierre. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours.
Hang in there, Pierre. More neighborhoods should do this. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
thinking of you and your family, Pierre. Your post was clear and honest. God bless.

Sending strength. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Nashville donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Bordeaux
Hope it all works out. Shared this with my family. Greetings from George
So sorry you're going through this, Pierre. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Sending love. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Love from Belfast
